Question

Early Christians came into conflict with the Roman Empire in part because:

Romans did not permit conquered people to worship their own gods.

Jesus's teaching that all are equal before God threatened the social order.

Baptism broke the Roman prohibition against using water in religious rituals.

All of the choices are correct.

Answer 1

Answer: Option A "Romans Did Not Permit Conquered People To Worship Their Own Gods."

Explanation:Christianity developed in Judea in the mid-first century CE, based first on the teachings of Jesus and later on the writings and missionary work of Paul of Tarsus.

Originally, Christianity was a small, unorganized sect that promised personal salvation after death. Salvation was possible through belief in Jesus as the son of God—the same God the Jews believed in. Early Christians debated whether they should only preach to Jews, or if non-Jews could become Christians, too. Eventually, Christianity gained followers not only from Jewish communities, but from throughout the Roman world.

Stop and consider: How might the fact that Christianity developed out of Judaism have affected its spread?
